We're Hooked on Antelope - but why can't they be closer?

[jmveverka]

First time out to Wyoming for Antelope and we are hooked! I have to agree with Randy - I would love to hunt these guys all the time. 26 Hour Drive out from Virginia and 30 Hours back (thanks to a blown tire on the trailer). We will be back in a few years, more often if they were a bit closer to us...Thanks for all the help - direct and indirect - from you guys on the forum. Loved every minute of it. The three of us filled 7 Antelope Tags a cow Elk and Mule Deer. Only two tags went unfilled - my cow and one leftover Antelope Doe.

Looks like a great trip! Grilled a pair of whole antelope tender loins the other night and after dinner my wife asked if I could get more antelope tags and less deer tags. Antelope is one of our favorites! Glad you had a successful trip.

I’m right below you in Rockingham county. I agree 100%. I was out there the first week of October and we had an amazing time, but man that drive sucks.

Congrats neighbor! Been driving out that way once or twice (sometimes more) a year for 11 years now. ID, CO, MT, WY for deer & elk but never for antelope yet! I got double digit points for WY lopes - maybe 2018....
